The PWHL Draft, set for Tuesday in Ottawa, marks an opportunity for teams to replenish their rosters after the expansion draft. Each of the eight teams will select players over six rounds, with the New York Sirens picking first. Unlike the previous drafts featuring clear top picks, this year's draft lacks a standout player, but potential stars like Casey O'Brien and Kristyna Kaltounkova are available. Teams look to address their needs, particularly the Sirens, who must fill gaps at forward after key losses.
"Leadership will also be a key factor in who GM Pascal Daoust selects in the draft. Last season, all seven of his picks were former captains."
"The draft also isn't quite as deep as last season, when teams could pick from a large cohort of players finishing their NCAA careers and veterans coming from Europe."
